Build the Edge AI Future. Get Paid for It.
Clawland is an open-source ecosystem of AI Agents designed to run on hardware ranging from $2 microcontrollers to cloud servers — replacing human monitoring, maintenance, and service jobs at 1/100th the cost.
| Project | Language | RAM | Hardware Cost | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| picclaw | Go | <10MB | $10 board | Ultra-lightweight edge AI Agent |
| moltclaw | TypeScript | >1GB | Cloud / Mac Mini | Full-featured cloud AI Gateway with multi-Agent routing |
| nanoclaw | Python | >100MB | $50 SBC | Mid-weight Agent with rich Python ecosystem |
| microclaw | C / Rust | <1MB | $2-5 MCU | Sensor-level micro Agent |
Clawland is built to extend the OpenClaw open-source AI assistant ecosystem. OpenClaw serves as the cloud brain, while Clawland agents act as the edge hands and feet.

Deploy a $10 board + $5 sensor + Picclaw and replace:
- $48,000/yr data center night shift operator — with an $88 monitoring kit
- $30,000/yr fish pond patrol worker — with a $133 aquaculture guardian
- $18,000/yr greenhouse attendant — with a $95 smart farming kit
- $900/yr elderly care subscription — with a $30 safety guardian
Every scenario above is documented with full hardware BOM, wiring diagrams, PicoClaw implementation logic, and cost comparison. See clawland-kits.
